I think you forgot to wear your tinfoil hat today.

Well about the only tin foil hat conspiracy that worries me for real, is when GGG throws a party where Chris and everyone go on a drinking binge. Seems just about anything can happen then.

This is totally true. Today I was farming for around 2hours, didn't find anything good. Was about to call it quits, then suddenly I find an exalted orb in a chest. I'm like, aww thats nice lets grind some more. Fast forward 2 more hours and once again I'm about to call it a night. But guess what, Piety drops me a BoR. It's now 4am and I'm thinking to myself, just another 2hr grind and I'll call it quits.
My theory is GGG has an employee who monitors me 24/7, whenever I'm about to give up, he makes the game drop me a nice item as an incentive. Thanks anonymous GGG man! /s Last edited by etrensce#1831 on Nov 6, 2013, 10:26:23 PM

Yeah one time I bought the mohawk microtransaction and just then noticed 17 exalt orbs drop.
Oh man, I was super excited, ran into some desync, cussed out my monitor and noticed that all loot stopped dropping. All loot. Not even whites. I went back to my stash noticed 15 of those exalts were gone. I have never bitched about desync since. |

" I've noticed this too, and you're right, that's the only logical explanation. That or shape shifting illuminati lizardmen. |

The only time drop rates are modified (without rhoa feathers, that is) is if you're a botter or are too high level for the area (the currency penalty that is well understood within the community).

Oh look, it's another snoozefest thread from OP.

" Does that mean if my drops have sucked really bad for weeks that I'm flagged as a botter or just having some piss poor luck? ;) |
